The Bell Ceramic Candle — Terre Noire, 500 g

A low, flared rim gives The Bell its quiet sculptural presence. MAD et LEN's Terre Noire candle sits in black porcelain coloured through the body and made by artisans in Limoges. Inside, vegetable wax carries an earthy woodland accord of humus, bark, petrified wood, cedar, mushroom and undergrowth. The fragrance takes inspiration from the dark mineral slopes around the brand's Saint-André-les-Alpes workshop. This French-made ceramic edition is stated at 500 g, with a 75-hour burning time and a vessel measuring 10 cm high by 10 cm in diameter. Its smooth porcelain distinguishes it from the iron Apothecary candle.
